Set Reboot Srom - DEC Digital Alpha VME 4/224 User Manual

set reboot srom

set reboot srom — set reboot mode to Serial ROM
Enters the Serial ROM (SROM) Mini-Console.
The only valid (and necessary) argument is srom. When you issue this command,
you enter the SROM Mini-Console the next time you reset or power on the
system. Once issued, the command prevents you from rebooting from the console
until you alter NVRAM bytes using the SROM Mini-Console.
To alter the NVRAM bytes, enter the SROM Mini-Console command wb. This
command sets either NVRAM location 0x8028 and/or 0x8029 to zero and allows
the console to start the next time you reset or power on the system.
If the I/O module's debug jumper is installed, the system displays the
SROM Mini-Debugger prompt every time you power on the system. While
in the SROM Mini-Debugger, you can start the SRM console by entering
the st command and then entering address 8000 at the address prompt as
follows:
SROM> st
a> 8000
